Selective Modification of Aliphatic Hydroxy Groups in Lignin Using Ionic Liquid
A facile, sustainable method for the selective modification of aliphatic hydroxy (R–OH) groups in Kraft lignin was developed using an ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (EmimOAc), as a solvent and catalyst. Selective R–OH modification was achieved by a one-pot, two-step homogeneous re...
